BONUS BURNOUT

THE BONUS BURNOUT PHILOSOPHY

Focus on your weakness for 2-3 minutes – go until you can’t complete another rep! Here are a list of ideas:

CARDIO: Sprint for 2-3 minutes on the machine of your choice.
STRENGTH: 20-30 reps with the muscle of choice.
CORE: 2-3 minutes of planks, sit-ups or pushups.

End breathing hard with a good sweat!
